Professional Canadian – Matches all the rules you will find in a game of professional Canadian football; 110 yard field, 12 men per side, 3 downs per series, etc… 2. Modified American – Plays the game using many of the major rules of American football; 100 yard field, 11 men per side, 4 downs per series, goal posts on the dead ball line, 3 time outs per half, 2 minute warning. With the exception of there being no Rouge applied to non-returned missed field goals, the kicking game uses the Canadian rule set for kicking. Backfield motion uses the Canadian rule set. Most penalties use the Canadian rule set. ENTERING THE GAME Once you have both teams Ready and Advanced, the game takes a few moments to load the stadium for the home team and set up. During this time, you can view the controller mapping for the various aspects of the game. Control Function Left & Right Bumper Changes pages. During the on-field game play, these screens can be accessed again for further review by pausing the game and selecting (Y) from the pause screen. KICKING Kicking the ball uses both analog thumb sticks. • Aim The Kick: the right Thumb stick will move the yellow directional arrow on screen. The ball will travel along this direction. • Kicking off: pull back on the left Thumbstick and push forward again. The faster this action, the more power in the kick. • Scrimmage Kicks: For punts and field goals, the ball will be snapped as soon as you complete the kicking process on the controller. Just as with kicking off, pull back and push forward on the left Thumbstick. The faster this action, the more power in the kick. • Give Up a Safety: If your punter is standing in his own endzone and you wish to give up 2 points rather than proceed with the punt, you can press down on the Right Thumbstick as soon as he has received the ball but not yet kicked it. KICK RETURN The computer will automatically put the closest kick return player into the best position to receive the ball. If the ball is kicked to a location outside the reach of the return player, that player will attempt to chase down the ball and pick it up. Once your team’s returner has possession of the ball, you are now in control of that player. If you are inside your own endzone, you can press down on the Right Thumbstick button to take a knee and give up a Rouge to the opposing team. BALL CARRIER – NON-PASSER Controlling a Ball Carrier that is not in the backfield

It quickly supplanted cricket,1 but what of the other potential competitor in team sports—football? Early ball-and-stick games evolved into the game we now recognize as baseball during the mid-1800s.2 This same period also saw the evolution of the sport known as football in Great Britain.

The Evolution of American Football Rules Veronica Glanville Eastern Washington University, Physical Education, Health and Recreation Department Mentor: Dr. Chadron Hazelbaker Abstract Football, as we know it, has changed significantly since its humble beginnings in 1892. In its early beginnings, football was an all-out brawl. The first football game was played in 1869. It was an intercollegiate contest between Rutgers and Princeton universities, but the game was played according to soccer rules modified from the London Football Association (Riess, 2011). During the next seven years, rugby gained popularity over soccer and modern football was launched from rugby (Riess, 2011). In 1876, the Intercollegiate Football Association (IFA) was formed by Columbia, Harvard, Princeton, and Yale universities (Riess, 2011). IFA was dedicated to playing football according to rugby rules (Riess, 2011). Walter Camp, now known as the father of American football, helped establish many of the first rules and regulations of football (Nelson, 1995).

  • The Game of American Football and the Danger It Imposes on Athletes
    1 The Game of American Football and the Danger It Imposes on Athletes Taisei Ieda 1M160135-0 SILS Seminar on History Graduation Thesis Fall 2019 2 Abstract: The game of football presents significant stress and toll on the athletes. With one of the most common injuries on the field being concussions, recently, there has been an extensive discussion questioning the safety of the game. The problem with concussions is that a repetition of them is known to lead to a chronic traumatic encephalopathy, which is a type of significant brain injury. There hadn't been enough attention put towards this injury due to the lack of research and advancements in the game. Many players in the past have suffered significant consequences, with some people even committing suicide, as discussed in this thesis. One of the recent players who has become a victim of this was Aaron Hernandez. Many players have relied on medicinal drugs such as 'Toradol' to overcome the pain of injuries suffered in the league. There have been some breakthroughs in making the game safer, such as the advancement of equipment, changes in rules, and the installation of the concussion protocol. However, there are still significant issues in the NFL and many that pose a threat to the safety of the players. The thesis will discuss how the events noted above have progressed over time and how the NFL is in its current state. 3 Table of Contents Page Abstract 2 Chapter 1. Introduction 6 Chapter 2.

  • Visualization of American Football Rules 126
    visualization of american football rules 126 Visualization of American Football Rules American football is a very complex sport with several possible ball movements, actions, gestures and rules. This complexity makes it difficult to understand for an ignorant spectator. And if a person cannot understand what is going on out on the field, he gets bored soon or forms the opinion that the actions on the field are just a big fight without any plan. To help ignorant spectators, for example foreign students who come from coun- tries where American Football is not very popular, understand the game, visual explanations could be a useful aid. They have to understand the special ‘langu- age’ used in this sport, and just by sharing a “common sign repertory” as Hanno Hanno H. J. Ehses, “A semiotic approach Ehses states in his article “A semiotic approach to communication design,” they to communication design“, The Canadian will be able to follow and understand the happenings on the field. Journal of Research in Semiotics (Vol. IV, No. 3, Spring 1977) An analysis I made of an American football game helped me to understand the complex actions and to decide which parts I have to explain to an ignorant spec- tator, so that he will understand basically what is going on out on the field: 1. Explaining the aim of an American football game. The spectator has to understand what the whole game is about, namely the winning of yards and finally reach of the opponent’s end zone. 2. Explaining the football field, the measurements, signs and end zones.

  • A History of the Presentation of American Football in England and Germany
    FROM VIOLENCE TO PARTY: A HISTORY OF THE PRESENTATION OF AMERICAN FOOTBALL IN ENGLAND AND GERMANY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Lars Dzikus, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Melvin L. Adelman, Adviser Professor Sarah K. Fields Adviser Professor William J. Morgan College of Education ABSTRACT While scholars have widely discussed the cultural, economic, and political influence of the United States on Europe in general and Germany in particular, the realm of sports has received surprisingly little attention. This study ties in with the scholarly debate about Americanization and / or globalization that started in the first half the 1990s. It examines the presentation of American football in England from the 1890s through World War II as well as in Germany following the war to the present day. The study discusses what non-Americans wrote about football and what their countrymen and –women read about it. The study draws on English and German newspapers and magazines, particularly the London Times and the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. It also examines the role American military, radio, television, and movies played in the diffusion of American football. In the case of Germany, the researcher draws on extensive qualitative interviews with several of the “founding fathers” of American football in Germany as well as his own experiences in the sport. The work demonstrates that American football arrived in Germany on a field that had been prepared by a three-hundred-year process of imagining Amerika.
